  • Patent number: 4558804
    Abstract: A food consumption appliance (100) for use in consuming dry comestibles such as ready-to-eat cereals in combination with liquids comprises a stabilized lower fluid compartment (102) for holding milk and other liquids. The lower compartment (102) includes a straw hole (114) positioned through a lateral surface of a cylindrical portion (108) of the compartment (102), and the compartment (102) threadably receives an upper compartment (120) having a downwardly-angled food consumption spout (132). The upper compartment (120) rotatably supports a carousel (140) having radially projecting spoon sections (150) for holding dry comestibles to be consumed by the user. As the carousel (140) is manually rotated, the spoon sections (150) sequentially pass over and align with the spout (132) and the comestibles are dispensed therethrough. The user can selectively consume the comestibles and extract liquid through the straw hole (114) as desired.
